Gweedoe, how many of the Bush appointees in the Federal government have been let go, rehired, or quit?

It will take many years to free our government of the Cheney neo cons.

Makes me sleep better these daze knowing the morons are no longer making the appointments.

Wait and we will see....meantime:

More stimulating spending:  $50 M for fish food:


I am totally in favor of this spending. Stimulus money spent in poor areas to protect fish farmers in three southern states is one of the wisest and smallest amounts of money I have heard of.

Food insecurity is a real threat. We should be doing all we can to help these farm raised fisheries. Plus the money is being spent to grow algae which has some real interesting new uses as an alternative fuel source.

But will it "stimulate" the economy is the question RM. It's just another, run of the mill, discretionary spending project.

The government is attempting to give a hand up to catfish and you think it's stinky bait?
The only thing that stimulates you is Faux Newz.

The "government" is attempting to give a hand up?  How about, the "taxpayers" are giving the hand up you idiot. You would know that if you paid any appreciable amount in taxes. You really sound like a freeloader, do you know that?

Gee BB, don't strain yerself thinking...

Let's see.  "...about 52 million checks that have been mailed out, about 10,000 of those have been sent to people who are deceased."

Yes, it was boneheaded.  Yes, 10,000 is alot.

But when I get out my calculator:

10,000 out of 52 million checks is:

   0.0001923 %

$50M in stimulus will help fish farmers buy feed

1 day ago

OSAGE BEACH, Mo. (AP) — The United States is about to spend $50 million in stimulus money on fish food to help fish farmers who have been struggling since feed prices jumped 50 percent last year.

The money could provide algae to nourish clam and oyster larvae along the Pacific coast, fill the bellies of tilapia in Arizona and feed catfish, trout and gamefish in the Midwest and South.

Supporters say many fish farms are in already poor areas. They say the money will help keep the farms going and preserve jobs in areas hard hit by the recession and lacking other industries.

Much of the money is likely to end up in Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas — the nation's largest catfish producers. Catfish accounts for one-third of the nation's $1.4 billion aquaculture industry.

I'll take $50mil for fish over the "economic stimulus" of building three islands in the middle of the Arkansas River.   :P

I'll be waiting for Guido's future posts expressing outrage at the misuse of taxpayer dollars in military procurement and no-bid defense contracts..........   ::)
